Leopardi Fire

This is only about a minute after the fire started. When I first realized the building was on fire is was only because of smoke coming from the roof. By the time I pulled over and called 911, then got my camera out, it was just starting to show through the roof. Smoke was already plentiful but the fire had just started to show itself. The next shots pretty much go in order for what happened in a matter of minutes.

I moved my car from the side of the building to right up the street where I knew it would be out of the firemen's way and that quickly a crowd starts to gather. This is probably only three minutes after I first saw fire and called 911.
